Survival is a skill that everyone receives. Adventurers automatically learn Survival abilities as they gain levels of experience. Survival deals with outdoors issues as well as general survival issues. Survival abilities include swimming, climbing trees, attacking dimensional wormholes, healing your limbs by force of will alone, and many other useful abilities.

Unlike other abilities, Survival is tied to an Adventurer's level1. Transcendence is achieved upon reaching level 80.

The skill of Survival is a general skill and available to all classes.

Sometimes it is not possible to enter a location, but one must still remove a reverberation vibration that protects more dangerous barriers.
